PointSav Documentation

The engineering library for the PointSav platform — operating systems and services for regulated businesses that own their data, their AI, and their record-keeping outright. Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

Platform architecture overview

The PointSav platform is designed around two structural properties: cryptographic consistency, backed by a real Merkle-chained ledger primitive, and sovereign bootability, a planned capability. Neither an operator-triggered archive-collapse-to-bootable-image feature nor a live dual-environment (cloud-plus-offline-vault) shared-root sync exists in the platform today — both are the intended shape this article describes, not shipped mechanisms.

Key Takeaways

  • Cryptographic consistency rests on a real primitive: a Merkle-chained ledger with inclusion and consistency proofs, already used by several platform services for tamper-evident append-only records.
  • The specific dual-environment guarantee this article describes — an active cloud node and an offline vault sharing an identical Merkle root, verifiable independently — is a design goal, not a built feature. No cross-environment sync mechanism was found in the current codebase.
  • Sovereign bootability — collapsing a deployment into a self-contained bootable image and reconstituting it on new hardware without a remote source — is also a design goal. Real bootable-image tooling exists for several individual platform products; an operator-triggered "collapse this archive's current state" command spanning cloud and offline copies does not.
  • Both properties are intended to be structural once built, not add-ons — but stating them as already operating would overclaim what's shipped today.

The cryptographic ledger primitive

The real building block behind the consistency claim is the platform's Merkle-chained ledger: an append-only structure with cryptographic checkpoints and inclusion/consistency proofs, already in use by several services for tamper-evident records. What is not built is the specific dual-environment property described below — a live cloud node and an offline vault continuously sharing one verified root.

Planned: dual-environment shared state

The intended design: a single archive would exist across two physical environments — an active cloud node and a physically isolated offline vault — sharing an identical Merkle root at all times, so an auditor could verify either copy independently without both being online. This is forward-looking; no synchronization mechanism implementing it exists in the platform today.

Planned: archive collapse and portability

The intended design: an operator-issued command would compress a deployment's state into a single self-executing bootable image. Real bootable-image build tooling exists for individual platform products today (compiling a specific product into a .img for its own deployment target), but a general "collapse this live archive, including its offline-vault counterpart, into one portable image" operator command does not exist. The design intent is for this operation to be explicit and operator-initiated, never automatic or scheduled.
